Missing Windows Folder In Active Synce - P3300, MDA Compact III General

i have active synce 4.5b installed and on my old mda compact i used to be able to see the windows folder when using the pc to explore the pda (ie so i could delete shortcuts from my pda or add ring tones directly to the windows / rings folders etc).
i have bought an 02 orbit and have tried to browse to my windows folder exept i can not see it in the exploere window of active synce yet my brothers mda compact when synced to my pc shows the windows folder ok.
when i use resco explorer in the pda i can see the windows folder. so my question is, is the windows folder hidden and how can i get access to it from the pc?

PHM Registry Editor will not install on my xdaiis

I've tried using the Desktop Installer, it loads MS Active Sync - looks good - but nothing appears in add/remove programs or on XDA
I tried a few others but don't know what to do with the CAB file
Has anyone with a zda2s made it work?
thanks
strange, use active sync to copy .cab file over into ur file explorer. then go to the file on ur device and tap it, a .cab for a pocket pc is the same kind of file as a .exe on a normal pc.

it is a hidden file as far as the PC is concerned. You need to tell the pc to show hidden files.
in the explorer window
tools
folder options
view tab
show hidden files and folders

Vista+Dash

I have my Dash connected to Vista and I am trying to find out how I can delete\edit\copy a file in the Windows folder on my Dash. I must tell you that I am not able to see the Windows folder on my Dash through VISTA and I even have hidden files/folders option enabled.
I can see the Windows folder through the folder explorer that came with my Dash but I can not do anything to this file...
_BackgroundImage_Land
I have 2 goals for this issue.
First goal is to change the background for my calls.
Second is to move My Documents to my SD card but there is a file in their that is called Bubble located in the Templates folder that I can not do anything with either.
Can anyone please help me with this issue?

Yes I did try it on a XP machine and I am able to see Windows but I am still not able to do anything to the files I want to modify.
Hey Guys,
I also have the same problem but have got around it using Total Commander. Its a free program that you can install on your phone. The program allows you to edit delete and move any file in the windows folder. It has got me around this annoying issue in Vista.
cheers
Ran into the same thing in Vista, but when I turned off the 'hide system & hide hidden' options for folders in Vista, everything became visible on my Dash.
everything is now visible but i am not able to overwrite the _backgroundimage file....

opening windows folder in W7

I am sure this question has been asked before. But no I couldnt find using the search option neither with google.
I recently upgraded from XP to W7. To accecc the windows folder on my TP2 in xp I just had to set folder option view to "View hidden files and folders". In w7 I do the same in Control panel>folder options>"show hidden files, folders and drives" but then I am still not able to see my Windows folder on my mobile. (i do see all hidden folders on my comp)
I already solved it by using total comander, but in the future it might be helpful to know how to access my windows folder on my telephone by using Windows 7!
ANyone who can help me out?
In that same menu, just uncheck "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)". Problem solved.

If you save a file as a *.txt file (with Notepad on the desktop, for example), you can open them on your device with Pocket Word.
